This Pizza Box Made Of Pizza Will Help Make Brooklyn Great Again
PIX 11- It’s a pizza lover’s dream come true — a pizza box made 100 percent of pizza — and you can get it in New York City. Vinnie’s Pizzeria at 148 Bedford Ave. in Williamsburg unveiled “the pizza box pizza” Wednesday on social media. It’s a traditional New York-style pepperoni pie surrounded by a square pizza that serves as the “pizza box.”
Owner Sean Berthiaume told PIX11 News he came up with the idea right before the lunch rush when business at the restaurant was slow. Out of pure boredom, he decided to experiment and thought about how he was tired of seeing people eat their pizza out of a cardboard box, then throwing the greasy carton away. What a waste!
Berthiaume said he thought about an edible box — a pure, delicious, square pie that not only served as a box, but food that you can eat and won’t waste (if you don’t throw it away). Getting your hands on a pizza box pizza is going to cost you some money. Each pizza box will cost you $40. And yes, you can have it delivered to your doorstep, but it’s a process. Berthiaume prefers customers ordering the pizza box pizzapick it up at the store.
This wasn’t the first time Berthiaume and Vinnie’s Pizzeria made headlines. He created a pizza on top of a pizza last year that became a viral sensation. He sold hundreds of slices, dozens of pies and even appeared on the Jimmy Kimmel Show.
PIZZACEPTION!!! When it comes to the greatest ideas of all-time, you must put the pizza box made out of pizza somewhere between the polio vaccination and indoor plumbing. I am not sure where Brooklyn went wrong, but I feel like when you mention Brooklyn to people, they think of a place overrun by douchey hipsters and overpriced apartments. But Brooklyn should be so much more than that. Great food, great culture, and a place that does stuff like this. Everyone knows that food is better when the container is edible. Bread bowls make soup 100% better. Same for those edible shells for salad or burrito bowls. So if Brooklyn wants to build an entire marketing campaign around the greatness of the pizza inside of a pizza box, I am with them. In fact, I guarantee the Dodgers never move to L.A. if there are pizza boxes made out of pizza in Brooklyn during the 1950s.
And for dessert we go to New Jersey because holy shit!
